C-h p C-s games RET (package-show-package-list?) misses most of the games |

Package: emacs
Severity: minor
As of 84b50168 [1], C-h p C-s games RET lists only a few games
of those coming with Emacs:
Package Version Status ▼ Archive Description
dunnet 2.1 built-in text adventure for Emacs
gamegrid 1.2 built-in library for
implementing grid-based games on Emacs
tetris 2.1 built-in implementation of
Tetris for Emacs
[1] http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=84b50168
As it seems, package-show-package-list is given all the games
found, yet it fails to render them in the resulting *Packages*
buffer, perhaps because of them missing the Version: metadata.
As per M-x trace-function-background:
1 -> (package-show-package-list (zone tetris studly spook solitaire snake pong
mpuz morse meese life landmark hanoi gomoku gametree gamegrid fortune dunnet
doctor dissociate decipher cookie1 bubbles blackbox animate 5x5))
1 <- package-show-package-list: #<buffer *Packages*>

I no longer observe the issue (as of 2014-11-18 build,
cb4f666ade76.) Per my reading of the Git log, it was fixed
(as Bug#16762) in the emacs-24 branch back this March:
commit 3e2377ce2f4eeb141ffbd000723c55813f78b08f
Author: Dmitry Gutov <address@hidden>
AuthorDate: Tue Mar 25 00:38:06 2014 +0200
Commit: Dmitry Gutov <address@hidden>
CommitDate: Tue Mar 25 00:38:06 2014 +0200
Fix bug#16762
* lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package--add-to-archive-contents):
Include already installed and built-in packages in
`package-archive-contents'.
(package-install): Don't include already installed packages in the
options on interactive invocation.
